BRIGHTON, Mich., November 29, 2005-- ToolWorx Information Products, Inc., ("ToolWorx") of Brighton, Michigan, announces the release of a new version of their Lot Traceability System called TWLot™ Compliance. This version of TWLot™ is designed to help food processors comply with the FDA Bioterrorism Act of 2002 reporting requirements.

TWLot™ Compliance will track lot numbers of all ingredients used in every recipe of any food sold to consumers.

About The Bioterrorism Act of 2002

The events of Sept. 11, 2001, reinforced the need to enhance the security of the United States. Congress responded by passing the Public Health Security and Bioterrorism Preparedness and Response Act of 2002 (the Bioterrorism Act), which President Bush signed into law June 12, 2002. The responsibility for implementing the Act falls under the auspices of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The FDA is responsible for carrying out certain provisions of the Bioterrorism Act, particularly Title III, Subtitle A (Protection of Food Supply) and Subtitle B (Protection of Drug Supply). More information on The Bioterrorism Act can be found at www.fda.gov/oc/bioterrorism/bioact.html.
